So......
I'm going to the Yukon for 5 weeks. I'll be running an after school program there for 6-10 year olds, and hopefully crossing off some of the things on my 50 Things to do list in my free time. If all goes well I should make enough to pay for my flights and still bring back some money to help us while Justin looks for work. I'll be home in time for my neurologist appointment, and I'm hoping the distraction will help the time pass quicker. Sitting at home and worrying about what might be wrong is killing me.
I am very excited. I have wanted to go and visit my friends who live up there for years. I'm finally going to see mountains! And Dez said she'd take me to the hotsprings. :)
I am seriously going to miss Justin and the kids. I kind of wish I had thought that part of it through a little more. Justin is adamant that he wants me to go though. It is a unique opportunity for me, running programs for kids is something I've always loved, and from the sounds of the job I shouldn't have much trouble doing it even if I have a bad day.
I'm so worried about this being hard on the kids. I bought a bunch of Hershey's Kisses today and I'm making a special jar for them. There are enough for each child to have one kiss a day (hugs on Sunday) from the day I leave until the day I come home. And we are planning to Skype every night so that I can read them a bedtime story.
Big adventure ahead, wish me luck.
